Ryan, I bowed my head and prayed for your wife, your children, and you. If you need anything don't hesitate to call. You can talk, cuss, throw stuff, and I will listen. It does not matter to me, just call me if you need. I love you like a brother.

Thanks from the bottom of my heart to all you guys it really means alot to me.I appreciate it Jim I just might have to take you up on that.We have been dealing with this for over 4 yrs now and you almost get numb to it.I have to stay strong for the wife and my children.They call me there rock but sometimes I sure dont feel that way. know one will ever know how much this recent trip to Missouri accomplished for me.It was not just shooting,it was a chance for one day to put everything aside and just have fun.Me and my son couldnt get any closer but to go on a 1000 mile road trip with him was a blessing,I almost wish it was a little longer cause I didnt want it to end if that makes since.I never would have dreamed Bobski would have been as gracious as he was but he made you feel right at home.Bob is a stand up guy I just wished i could have stayed longer.Thanks everyone.

From my view point you are a rock. Through all you have been through you have held your family high, delt with your childrens issues, learned to reload while under pressure and did not blow a gun up (that is a task all in itself) and you have managed to befriend many, many people on this forum. Heck, you showed your wife how to shoot. Most guys shoot all their lives and never include their family. Heck, you are barely shooting and you get your whole family involved. Like I say, your a rock and I look up to guys like you!!! Take a bow Ryan, you deserve it.

Ryan, and Dad, these two verses are for you- Psalm 118:17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord. 1 Peter 2:24...by Whose stripes WE WERE healed. Lean on the Lord, for He is able to take care of ALL situations and issues. Also, He is the only One Who can turn the awful around!

Heavenly Father, I come to you this morning with a request for Ryan and Old Semperfi.
Both of these men have wives that are afflicted with a dire illness. And there are others, Lord, that have not asked for prayer here as well.

Lord, in the beginning you said it was not good for a man to be alone, and you created woman to be his partner. I ask, father, that in keeping with those words you would bring healing to our spouses. I don't pray about the tools, I don't tell you what methods to use, I only ask for a healing. I have seen you heal heart disease. I have seen you heal cancer. There is no doubt that you can bring health to these, and I ask that you would do this.

But I also recognize, father, that this life on earth is a very minor part of our eternal existance. I know that we spend time here to learn things, to grow strong, and to be tested in our faith. If in your infinite wisdom you should graduate one of our spouses ahead of us, we will work very hard to accept that, father. We will do our best to continue to serve you without the continued help of the one you blessed us with for such wonderful years.
